The town was named in honor of a Revolutionary war battle fought in Yorktown, Virginia on October 19, 1781. The Croton River runs through the southern part of the town. The Croton Dam was established in 1842 by New York City to provide a reliable source of drinking water.

There are various events held throughout the year for adults and children alike providing a close up look at the variety of wildlife in the area.
